Don't know why my phone keeps jacking these quotes up,lol! I haven't dog hunted in about 8 years or so now, I can definitely relate to being in a stand on your own property and having dogs come run deer through. I've had this happen to me here in Tennessee and it's not fun, so I understand where you are coming from. I couldn't afford to dog hunt anymore with the price of fuel and bet that has taken a large toll on dog hunter numbers as well.

I used to hunt a national forest in Florida that was about 75% dog hunt. What they did down there was not hunting. All they do is dump dogs and chase them around the roads in their trucks and tear up the roads. I'm so glad they don't run deer with dogs up here.

Some of my fondest outdoor memories were going every year, the week before Christmas to South Carolina, and running dogs for deer with my uncle on a large lease there. A few deer were killed, fun was had, memories were made, and for ANYONE to say it isn't hunting only shows how totally clueless and out of touch with the origins of hunting and the men who settled this country.

My understanding is that, in heavily dogged areas, mature bucks will circle back on the dogs or, even sit tight and let the dogs kick up other deer to chase and then the bucks will simply trail behind the dogs.

It still amazes me that in 2013 that hunters can not stand together and support each other and the legal means of hunting wherever or however they may choose to hunt.
I've hunted in many states that allow baiting...I hunted over bait. I've hunted in states that allow night hunting...I hunted with artificial light. I've hunted where dogs are used to run deer...I didn't have the opportunity to dog hunt, but wished I could've experienced it.

i grew up in fl and hunting dogs was a big part of are season, theres nothing like letting the dogs out in a block and the chase is on, we hunted swamps and nasty thick-its on a 35000ac lease and had other dog clubs around us,its not as easy as some might think the deer will back track around the dogs running them right back to where they jump them up the 1st time. good times.
